WHAT IS IT ABOUT
Get on the trail
Participants of the game, divided into teams of 6-8 people, set out on a 2-hour team building expedition in the footsteps of ancient civilizations. On the trail they will face unique arcade, logic and exploration tasks, as well as make contact with mysterious characters they will meet on their way.
Each team receives a traveler's suitcase, inside of which are items and story notes. In addition, a tablet with an interactive map with marked spots with arcade challenges and logic tasks.
The goal of the participants is to solve tasks, puzzles and explore the terrain in search of valuable artifacts to score as many points as possible in the end.
THE GAME STORYLINE
Following the Aztecs
This is an inclusive outdoor expedition whose storyline closely follows the pre-Columbian times and the lands under the rule of the ancient Mayan and Aztec civilizations.
Our story centers around the key achievements of the cultures there, their beliefs, symbolism, number systems used, writing, astronomical observations and numerous conquests. Players take on the role of explorers and searchers of valuable artifacts. Equipped with travel items, an interactive map and an expedition diary - that of 19th century English traveler and explorer John Flinders - they try to solve puzzles and meet the tasks set before them along the trail.
THE CHALLENGES
Challenge yourself with plenty of arcade, logic and exploration tasks
The number of challenges on the trail depends on the size of your group. However, you can rest assured that we will always provide at least 20 fully varied skill challenges and logic tasks about the life and culture of the ancient Mayan and Aztec civilizations. With larger groups, this number increases to 30.
REST AREA
Light the peace pipe
This is a unique place on the trail, where an animator dressed as an ethnic shaman lights the peace pipe.
Each participant has the opportunity to try the original peace pipe, which comes directly from Central America. The pipe is filled with a special mild tobacco of the Captain Black brand, so everyone can savor its taste.
We care about hygienic issues, so we provide single-use mouthpieces for each participant.
EXPLORATION
Find hidden items along the expedition trail
Gold totems, talismans and coins hidden in various places in the area. By finding them, teams earn bonus points. But... beware of traps.
Gold totems
These are unique items in the form of gold totems of various shapes. They are located on the terrain in the most unreachable places. There are the least number of them, but their special abilities allow you to gain the most bonuses.
Golden talismans
Talismans, are characterized by unique engravings that symbolize the functions the talisman performs. These are specific uses that help or.... complicate gameplay. One should be attentive while searching for these items.
Gold coins
The most common objects on the trail. Their point value is the lowest, but at the same time there are the most of them. They are in relatively easily accessible places. There are enough of them that you will need a large purse.
EQUIPMENT
Travel items for each team
Each team begins its adventure equipped with a traveler's suitcase and a tablet with a dedicated app of the game Following the Aztecs.
Tablet with dedicated app
Each team receives one tablet. It is a kind of interactive map, on which key spots of the expedition are marked. In addition, once the game begins, a timer appears on the screen measuring the time until the end of the expedition and the point balance.
The application also acts as a virtual key, through which participants can activate the selected task, get the necessary tips and accumulate points.
Map legend
A description of the places that will be visited by the participants during the expedition.
Traveler's diary
This is an essential collection of notes, in which the necessary tips and information for the tasks are recorded.
Story items
The suitcase also contains plot items that will be useful during certain tasks.
Space for unique items
This is a special place for Aztec totems and a leather bellows for talismans and gold coins.
Additional night equipment*
Night exploration requires the use of special additional equipment in the form of tactical flashlights, headlamps and emergency power supply. In addition, key areas of the expedition are illuminated with atmospheric led lanterns.
*Additional night equipment is provided for evening and night events. Ask our Manager for a recommendation.
EVENT FORMULA
Following the Aztecs is a modern formula for an integrative outdoor game
Are you planning an event and looking for an idea for an outdoor team building attraction? A game that, in addition to entertaining, will integrate your team. Thanks to which you will improve the efficiency of the team, build strong relationships between participants and learn about their abilities?
Following the Aztecs, combines all these features, encloses them in the form of a one-of-a-kind adventure outdoor game. Teams rival each other to see who can do better on the trail, solve more tasks and puzzles, get more gold, and thus have more points after two hours of the expedition.
PARTICIPANTS
Up to 240 participants
As many as 240 people can participate in the game at once, working in teams of 6-8 people. The number of checkpoints with tasks on the trail* and the number of traveler's kits we provide for the event is dictated by the size of the group and the terrain of the game.
Teams receive information about their base starting checkpoints. Thanks to this, there is no situation in which two or more teams already at the beginning meet at the same task. The rest of the expedition, remains in the hands of the respective team. It all depends on the interpretation of the clues, the map and the goals the team has in mind. Will they choose logical tasks, arcade tasks or maybe focus on the search for gold?
*The minimum number of challenges and tasks on the trail is 20, the maximum is 35. It depends on the number of participants and the number of teams. The number of checkpoints may also depend on the area where the game is implemented. The exact number of checkpoints is presented after getting to know the number of participants and the planned place of event.
DIVISION INTO TEAMS
Teamwork
Depending on your preferences, event participants are divided into teams of 6, 7 or 8 people. Each player is given his own task and brings different values to the team.
LANGUAGE OPTIONS

All challenges in the game are prepared in Polish and English versions. This allows for productive cooperation, even if your team includes people of different nationalities.
WEATHER CONDITIONS
Any time of the year - not just in the summer
The best time to organize an outdoor game Following the Aztecs is between April and October. However, nothing stands in the way of organizing a field integration in late autumn or even winter.
All elements used in the game are fully resistant to heavy weather conditions, including strong winds, rain, snow or frost (up to -15 degrees Celsius / 5 Fahrenheit).
SUMMARY OF RESULTS
Motivating competition
The team that scores the most points on the trail wins. Points for skill challenges and logic tasks, as well as gold coins found - sum up. Bonuses are special abilities of unique golden totems and talismans.
The counting of points takes place after the end of the game and the return of all teams to the starting place and the end of the expedition. Thanks to a specially developed scoring system, we get an insight into how a particular team coped with a particular type of task.
EVENT VENUE
Event in any outdoor area
Hotel outdoor area, restaurant, forest, urban open space. The larger the available area - the better. We optimally locate the game checkpoints at a distance of min. 50 meters from each other, in such an area that would allow them to cover each other, using terrain obstacles or architecture of the object.
